BASIC PHILOSOPHY: A back channel is the conversation that is going on while a lecture, video , presentation or other work is going on. This is almost ALWAYS happening anyways, the key is to get students using it productively.

1. Setting the tone.

Classroom ManagementBEST PRACTICES IN

• Emphasize the classroom as a learning environment – all decisions – including when to use (or not to use) technology should be seen and explained through that lens.

• Cultivate an environment where students are held accountable for their actions.

• Model appropriate conduct – teachers need to do a better job managing their own use of technology.

2. Clear and consistent rules, procedures and consequences.

Classroom ManagementBEST PRACTICES IN

• Spend class time discussing and/or developing rules and procedures. Keep them as brief and simple as possible.

• Procedures can included structured timing, daily responsibilities, and expectations for behavior while input or discussion is happening.

• They should be posted in the classroom and made available to parents, online or otherwise.

Page 14: 21st Century Classroom Ver 1.5

Common Sense

School Rules For DevicesIn the Classroom

• Laptops, including tablets, are permitted in classrooms for basic educational purposes. Other devices, such as Blackberries, iPods and other smart phones may be permitted for specific activities.

• Devices must be used in the classroom ONLY for specific, educational purposes as specified by the teacher.

• Personal communications (Facebook, email, chat) or digital entertainment (such as games or movies) are NEVER permitted inside the classroom, unless for specific educational activities authorized by the teacher.

• Teachers should develop routines and procedures defining when and how computers should be used in their classroom. It is the responsibility of the teacher to clearly establish and communicate these expectations.

• Computers should be treated as basic educational tools. Access should not be denied as a punishment, nor granted as a reward.

Mr.Peters’

Classroom Rules for Electronics

In our classroom:• Laptops or tablets, are encouraged. Smartphones may be used at designated times to update

homework or To-Do lists.• You must enter this classroom with all devices off, and leave the classroom with all devices

off.• No games, entertainment, or personal communications in the classroom. EVER.• No taking pictures or video of others without their permission.• You are accountable for your words and conduct both in class, and online.• Computer problems are NEVER an excuse for late or missing work. Save often. Leave yourself

extra time. PROBLEM SOLVE.

3. Progressive discipline

Classroom ManagementBEST PRACTICES IN

• A great system doesn’t mean you’ll never have trouble. Be ready with the next step.

• In a progressive discipline model, consequences become more severe when behaviors are repeated or become more severe.

• DOCUMENTATION IS THE KEY.

Instructional DesignBEST PRACTICES IN

Page 23: 21st Century Classroom Ver 1.5

TPACK is a way of looking at technology-infused lesson design to ensure you have covered all the bases.

BASIC PHILOSOPHY: Make sure you think about these three basic areas: Content knowledge (Does the lesson or activity require the student to learn & demonstrate the right content?) Technological knowledge (What technological skills are required to complete the task – are they appropriate? Are you teaching assessing them?) Pedagogical knowledge (Is it a rich, student-centered task? Does it require higher order thinking?)

1. Backwards Design

Backwards design is an instructional design method invented by Wiggins and McTighe and is part of their larger Understanding by Design framework.

BASIC PHILOSOPHY: Design with your goals in mind and work backwards to provide students with the skills and knowledge they need to be successful.

1. Backwards Design Principles & Technology

Choose and use technology purposefully – to address the goals you want to achieve.You can set content-driven goals (ie. their knowledge of the subject) and also skill-driven goals (ie. the ability to use computers to collaborate – ITSE framework!)Remember to think about the necessary computer skills students will need to be successful – don’t assume.

2. Constructivist Principles

Constructivism was popularized by the writings of Jean Piaget. Learning is viewed as a active process.

BASIC PHILOSOPHY: Emphasizes the learner as a unique individual. You don’t teach the students, as such, they must construct their own knowledge. Teachers are cast in the role of facilitators or guides.

2. Constructivist Principles & Technology

1. Importance of collaboration and working together. (social constructivism)

2. Accessing great resources – you are a curator!3. Important skill sets – research, critical thinking

BASIC PHILOSOPHY: You don’t teach the students, as such, they must construct their own knowledge. Teachers are cast in the role of facilitators or guides.

Credit where credit is due

Kim Cofino (http://kimcofino.com) is an international educator and technology facilitator (presently based in Japan). Her writing on blending backwards design principles with technology integration was a major source of inspiration for this presentation.

Steve Katz (http://www.teachwithvideo.com) is an author, technology facilitator, and former international educator who has prepared several presentations on classroom management in 1:1 and other device heavy environments. The great “Oxygen” analogy and many of the practical management tips come from one of his presentations.
